Revolution Investing Quote of the Week comes from @roddog101 over on Scutify who writes: “Sometimes no trade is the best trade, over trading can be your own worst enemy. Took me many years to get that.”

There are times to be aggressive and there are times to be patient. One of the reasons you pay for this subscription is because I’m here to help you remember to be patient. There are trillions of dollars moving around the economy each and every year. Likewise, there are sectors of the economy that are creating trillions of dollars of new value in the economy each and every year. As the App Revolution begins its new Wearables Revolution phase, it’s important to remember that as investors, we want to get our buckets out in front of those new river flows.

I’m quite serious when I write that the Wearables Revolution create a marketplace that’s measured in trillions of dollars. Let’s assume that the Wearables marketplace grows from its current unit sales figures measured in the tens of millions of dollars to there being just one wearable sold for every smartphone sold. That would mean that we’re talking about a billion wearable units sold a year. At an average price tag of just $200 each (which is probably on the low end for now, though by the time wearable cameras and sensors and smartwatches go mainstream, the average selling price of each unit will come down quickly), we’re talking about a $200*1 billion units = $200 billion dollars in wearable device sales alone. Throw in the 50%-75% cost of goods for each of those devices, and we’re talking about another $100 billion-plus for the wearables supply chain — annually, just five years from now.
